To all those who snagged my port of Sendmail 5.64, I just noticed something
weird... if I try to mail to foo@bar (with bar being bar.gsfc.nasa.gov in
/etc/host) the message bounces due to "unknown host" whereas if I address
it to foo@bar.gsfc.nasa.gov, then all is Okay.

The previous version of Sendmail (i.e., the version that came with 1.1) handled
foo@bar with no problem... 

I'm looking into this and will let you know...

 the very, very top, and then it tends to slope away rather sharply."
